A flow process for the multi-step synthesis of the alkaloid natural product (±)-oxomaritidine is described, mediated through the use of microfluidic pumping systems that progress material through various packed columns containing immobilized reagents, catalysts, scavengers or catch and release agents; our route involves the combination of seven separate synthetic steps linked into one continuous sequence utilizing flow chemistry.

 A multipurpose mesofluidic flow reactor capable of producing gram quantities of material has been developed as an automated synthesis platform for the rapid on-demand synthesis of key building blocks and small exploratory libraries. The reactor is configured to provide the maximum flexibility for screening of reaction parameters that incorporate on-chip mixing and columns of solid supported reagents to expedite the chemical syntheses.
